Square-zero extension of an algebra

ID: square-zero-extension-of-an-algebra

For a unital associative algebra and prescribed -bimodule , an extension is where is unital, is unital, is a square-zero ideal, and the induced actions are the prescribed ones. Equivalences induce the identity on and . A unital linear section produces a normalized Hochschild cocycle . Conversely, on defines the extension. Changing section changes by a coboundary, giving classification by .
